metal detectors and those living a rustic
lifestyle in the
isolated areas of the county rub shoulders with artists, university
and college students, a large retirement population and families
raising children in the small towns throughout the county.
Yavapai County is once again experiencing a boom period with rapid
increase in population growth. According to the 1990 census the county
